Make it a choose day, share day and enthuse day this Giving Tuesday
We all know this is a hectic time of year!
Despite the busy-ness, it’s the perfect time for you to get involved with Giving Tuesday (this year on November 28, 2023), the year’s biggest day of philanthropy here locally in the Greater Omaha/Council Bluffs metro and across the globe.

- Donating to nonprofits that matter to you
- Organizing a volunteer day
Share what matters to you
Inspire others to get involved by sharing your Giving Tuesday plans on social media and via text messages to friends.

Our credit card processor charges a low, standard fee, but consider covering the credit card processor fee so your favorite nonprofits can receive 100% of your gift!)
Let’s get enthused
While giving back and investing in our community is vital to our region's forward momentum, it’s also a lot of fun! Volunteering with family and coworkers can be the best bonding experience.
It’s officially the giving season, and while donating and volunteering should be a yearlong, consistent practice for all of us, ramping up our efforts can also boost our energy and joy during this busy time. Our area nonprofits and neighbors in need are counting on us. How will you give?
